Description Destination
Where could local history be better exhibited than in a historic building? High above the old town stands the Altensteig Castle, whose impressive residential tower is considered the only castle in the Black Forest that has remained undestroyed to this day. The “Old Castle” in its current form was built as a defensive structure from around 1230 onwards. The flank towers “Heaven” and “Hell” and the late Romanesque shield wall bear witness to this. The bailiffs of the Counts Palatine of Tübingen resided here. After the castle and the estate were sold to the Margraves of Baden at the end of the 14th century, the ensemble became the seat of the Baden bailiffs. In 1604, Altensteig became part of Württemberg through an exchange of territory from Baden. And the new rulers commissioned the “New Palace” around 1610.
The museum in the Old Castle also brings the history of the town of Altensteig to life in its permanent exhibition. In the former guard room you will find exciting information about
the settlement of the region and archaeological finds from the Nagold Valley. Altensteig owes its first written mention as a town in 1287 to a siege by the Margrave of Baden. The further development of the town is clearly illustrated by the model of the old town in its location and size around 1740.
The museum also presents significant events in the city’s recent history, such as the Nagold floods, which submerged the entire lower town and which
many citizens still vividly remember. Typical Black Forest professions, such as raftsmen, tanners and silversmiths, are presented – both using historical counterparts and medially prepared in a video installation. Altensteig was once an important centre for leather production and leather processing.
The tin figure exhibition is also worth seeing. In around 40 dioramas with 8,000 figures, historical scenes are lovingly recreated in great detail.

Overall impression
Wunderschönes Schlösschen
Das Gebäude ist unglaublich gut erhalten und wunderschön. Im Schloss selbst ist ein interessantes Museum über alte Handwerksberufe, die Geschichte der Stadt und immer wieder wechselnde Sonderausstellungen. Alles nach dem Motto Klein aber Fein.
Unten im Keller findet man dann noch ein kleines Café mit lecker Kaffee und Kuchen.
Ein Besuch lohnt sich immer, besonders da der Eintritt ins Museum nur 2€ kostet!

Overall impression
Wer in den Schwarzwald kommt, muss das gesehen haben!
Das Alte Schloss ist die einzige unzerstörte Burg des Schwarzwaldes und von 1230! Hier atmet und hört man Geschichte! Von den Buckelquardern in der Wehrmauer, über das Verließ im Turm bis zu den knarzenden Holztreppen, die einen in alle vier Stockwerke tragen. Zu sehen gibt es eine Dauerausstellung zum Thema "Heimische Berufe". Hier bekommt man alles mit, was für das Leben im Schwarzwald wichtig war. Auch von der Burggeschichte kriegt man einiges zu sehen. Vor allem, wenn man sich einer offenen Führung anschließt (an jedem 1. Sonntag im Monat, 14 Uhr), oder eine Führung bucht. Dazu kommen im Laufe des Jahres immer wieder Besonderheiten, wie Wechselausstellungen, besondere Museumstage, die Osteraktion und natürlich ganz wichtig: Die Weihnachtsausstellung! Dann verwandelt sich das ganze Schloss in ein Wunderland der Festlichkeit, voller Dekoration und unter einem weihnachtlichen Ausstellungsthema, welches dann das ganze Schloss bespielt. Ein Besuch lohnt sich immer, und wenn man mehrmals im Jahr kommt, gibt es noch viel mehr zu entdecken. Man spürt richtig, mit wie viel Liebe hier gearbeitet wird.
